witness reports from all over the region has been flooding in about strange happenings at the three lakes. what's more perplexing is that these occurrences seem to be happening spontaneously at the lakes. just moments ago, a burst of light erupted at the locations and residents in the vicinity have reported that the lake-side pokemon have turned aggressive and attack on sight.
However, there have been rumours and sightings of the legendary lake trio which has had trainers flocking in from all over the region.

[attr="class","dilyric3"]you're dead inside
[attr="class","dibody3"]the capture of the 666 comes as an abrupt end to their spat, but not a surprising one. nicolette recalls all but the two raichu as her attention is diverted away from rory and to the mass of people that's appeared. the appearance of a drapion and then of blood comes as a shock-- but she doesn't care about the stranger enough to really care about her fatality. it wasnt her job to become a medic, and she had better things to do than worry about a girl who had gotten in too far over her head. she gives rory a quick pat and nod to the fainted girl. "do your job, ranger," she sneers, hopping away from him as more pokemon appear. the scyther is ignored as two people go for a shiny kricketune-- nicolette takes the chance for herself.
a THUNDER WAVE and two THUNDERBOLTS with one IRON TAIL is enough to subdue to the scythe pokemon, weakining it just enough. she feels secluded, yet the paranoia of having the thing taken from her eats at her. she throws a pokeball regardless, raichu guarding the weak scyther and the silph girl makes her claim.
as new bug pokemon flood the area, the trainers around maverick don't waste any time with selecting their next target. "they can have the shiny grandpa," he says. even though he's sure the kricketune's probably going to be worth a bit more, he's not about to get into that. so he turns his attention to the scyther instead. "alright, let's get in there. myr, lune, let's try to get the first hit. use take down and rapid spin!." his concern leaks through his words, but surprisingly (for once), lune actually decides to listen to his trainer's demands.
the two pokemon take off running. myr manages to catch the bug right in the stomach, but as soon as lune is in the air, it raises one of its long arms and manages to deflect the other pokemon away. the squirtle pops back out of his shell and stumbles when he hits the ground, red eyes blazing. maverick sees it and tries to shout something to stop him, but the squirtle's already releasing a torrent of water in the form of a hydro pump in the scyther's direction. both myr and the scyther get caught in the spray.
"lune, i swear to--get in there." the scyther struggles back to its feet, damp wings shaking violently as it tries to clear off the water from its back. myr stands woosily. the scyther readies an attack, but when it goes to strike the skiddo, lune leaps in front of it and takes the hit with a protect. then color maverick surprised when the scyther shudders, yellow light sizzling around it. the water around it reaches maverick's drenched pokemon as the two are caught in the thunderbolt.
in the heat of the moment, maverick grits his teeth, sees the pokeball flying. "lune!" the squirtle reacts instantly, jumps into the air and attempts to hit the ball away with its tail. maverick's not even watching at this point; he's busy throwing his own ball and hoping his lands should the other trainer's fail.

[attr="class","dibody3"]a second pokeball enters the field, only for it to collide with her own. she frowns, turning, glaring at the intruder. "you fuckin' kidding me?" she growls, a quick whistle drawing the female raichu to attention. yellow cheeks spark as it squares up with the squirtle, even daring to take its hits to keep it from the scyther. it retaliates with a THUNDERBOLT, followed by a SLAM in an attempt to send it back into its skiddo partner.
"fuck off kid, this area is secure." she's too tired from her battle with rory, already set on catching this pokemon and leaving her with bounty.
and yet, shits keep getting in the way. the male raichu has splayed himself out over the scyther. with the release of three more pokemon, all of her team sits on the fainted bug pokemon to prevent any other pokeballs from reaching it as nikki throws a second pokeball.
[attr="class","ditags3"]✖ @ppl ✖ raichu (m) hit by take down, raichu (f) hit by hydro pump + razor leaf. raichu (f) uses thunderbolt and slam on squirtle into skiddo!!
so much for staying out of it. he's not exactly sure how he manages to fuck up enough to make his pokeball collide with her own in midair, but he can blame lune for missing it later. the way she speaks to him makes him bristle. he clenches his fists, but he's too slow with trying to work up a strategy. of course lune isn't waiting for him, but before the squirtle can prepare another hydro pump, he takes a hit from the other trainer's raichu. "fall back, lune. fall back." but he stands his ground and when the opposing pokemon slams into him, poor myr who'd just gotten back to her feet gets thrown back down to the ground.
he stares in dismay at his defeated pokemon. they struggle to stand back up. myr is panting heavily. there's no way she's strong enough to take on this trainer's entire team. so he bites his lip. maybe lune could have managed it, but his type disadvantage has already set him back too much. so maverick throws his hands in the air, begrudgingly says, "fine, jeez. take your damn scyther." let her capture it. the poor pokemon's being crushed under the weight of the others as it is. "didn't know we were playing king of the hill," he mutters. he returns his pokemon for now and gets the heck away from the other trainer and her prize.
[attr="class","humour"]too much shit was happening for him to focus or to care. the next thing he knew there was a girl passed out on the ground amongst a mess of other things. "i'm off duty, thanks," he replied. he ignored the passed out girl even though he probably should've helped. but there were more bugs to catch.
or steal.
a battle raged on between nikki and some random dude who he pitied for getting involved. he'll help the man, but only because he wanted the scyther for himself. "stop the pokeball." he told the blaziken who sped off for a BLAZE KICK on nikki's thrown pokeball. it would then use another BLAZE KICK, swinging it at the group of bullies that stood atop the fallen bug.
he threw a pokeball after that, aimed straight for the bug.

[attr="class","dibody3"]safeguard down," she snaps, quickly turning her attention back to rory after her victory against she stranger. all pokemon take cue-- luz goes in for the NUZZLE on blaziken while grey follows with a THUNDER WAVE. An ELECTROWEB from the joltik aims at Rory's face, while a second THUNDER WAVE from helioptile also sparks at the ranger. "Fuck off, Mclain," she snarls, watching as she pokemon are scattered off of the bug. She sees it coming, instead replacing her team with herself, physically jumping on the scyther and smirking as his pokeball bounces off of her. Nicolette clings to the scyther, her body over a majority of the bug as she aims to tap her own pokeball against the fainted pokemon's head. pachirisu springs back from hell, scampering up rory himself to deliver a SWEET KISS on the man, aiming to confuse him completely.
going for his blaziken is too hard- it's too fast.
he sits there and twiddles his damn thumbs while trainers and pokemon move around him. the appearance of another trainer vying for the scyther only makes him scoot back a few more inches, but then he realizes something. the female trainer's no longer paying any attention to maverick. he's quiet about letting lune back out of his ball, clamps a hand down on the back of his shell so the damn pokemon doesn't try anything before it's given a command.
"okay, lune. i want you to get as close as you can while they're busy. do what you gotta do, bud." if he can't put faith in his squirtle to use any moves he calls, he can sure as hell trust that it'll use its favorite. which is exactly what it does. lune flounces back up to the trainer and cracks open its maw; another typhoon of water spills from its mouth and manages to wash the clinging trainer off and away from the scyther.
maverick snickers (and tries not to show how bad his hands are shaking) as he throws his ball.

HEARTS ALL OVER THE WORLD
T O N I G H T
key tilted her head at the trainers currently bickering over the scyther. what... why did they fight each other? wasn't the target the bug pokemon? nevertheless, key decided to take initiative from the whole debacle, softly walking up to the scyther in question.
but then a poke ball hit it and espurr sighed. it was hard, being a fairly small pokemon in tall grass. she supposed that's why trainers always walked in tall grass to find pokemon.
[attr="class","humour"]not again. electric attacks now came flying at him, the main concern being the thunder wave which he's felt before. the vulpix intercepted the thunder wave, static causing it to tense up as it fell to the ground. the electroweb covered his face, stinging with pain as he tried to pull it off. every touch hurt, but he manages to regain his vision just in time to claw the pachirisu off of him.
"ares--" blaziken was busy with its own problems, the attacks reigning down on it as it became paralysed. he noticed the new trainer retaliating, shooting nikki with his squirtle which only made him laugh.
"the squirtle," he pointed at it. blaziken though paralysed managed to move, charging fast at the squirtle to deliver a SKY UPPERCUT, intending to knock it out.
another pokeball tossed from rory before walking over to nikki. "wet again," he shook his head, offering to help her up should she accept.

[attr="class","dibody3"]attention diverts from her, but the hydro pump leaves her groaning and in pain. all pokemon drop to the deck, to stand guard, only the male raichu still hovering around the scyther, though the pain from previous and current battles. the hydro pump was bound to leave a nasty bruise; one she didn't care to look at later. by the time her pokemon have revived her rory has already gotten the upper hand, the scyther falling in his possession as he helps her up. grey has wrapped himself around the ranger's leg, nibbling on his pants. her head pounds as she gets onto her feet, the aching pain in her torso threatening to bring her back to her knees.
a grunt is his only thanks as she leans against the trunk of a nearby tree, the annoyance of missing the scythe pokemon obvious on her face.
"protect!" maverick's voice is hoarse now, taut with worry when he sees the blaziken turn on his pokemon. lune's already weak enough and an attack like that could do some serious damage. thank arceus the squirtle actually listens for once and shifts into a defensive position. the impact from the blaziken's move still sends lune backwards and maverick leaps to the side so the squirtle crashes into him. he winces when his head hits the ground with a thud, but the tiny turtle pokemon is safe in his arms and that's all that matters.
he sits up, one arm wrapped around his dazed pokemon and the other rubbing at the back of his head. he watches the blaziken's trainer help up the raichus'. his expression is unreadable. "this won't happen next time, buddy. i promise," he says, looks back down at his squirtle just to double check that he really is alright. "you held your own though. now it's time for some well-earned rest." usually there's a lecture that comes before the squirtle gets returned to his ball, but he doesn't have the energy nor the heart for it today.
while myr could probably go after a few more wild pokemon on her own, there's no way she can match up to these trainers and their teams, who are obviously willing to fight anyone who stands in the way of a possible capture. with one last glance over his shoulder at the two who gave his team a run for its money, he walks back to the edge of the field and returns his event balls.
key bristled. these humans... they really didn't take their time, did they? espurr can recall the stories of how fidel caught all her teammates; big, dramatic battles, all of them. the cat was fairly disappointed at how anticlimactic this all was.
deciding to follow the example, key walked up and challenged a nearby beautifly. "fight me." the bug nodded, and it used silver wind. key redirected the scale-saturated gust with a dome-shaped light screen, erecting a large violet shield covering espurr from any attacks.
key then promptly blasted two disarming voices in it's general direction, her attack fueled by general frustration. "ES! PURR!" the sound-based attack exploded from espurr like a shockwave, crashing into the beautifly like a fist. with that, the beautifly went down surprisingly quickly, and key chucked a poke ball at it. seven seconds, total time.
"That kinda hurt.." Corbin jokingly muttered out as he reached around to rub the spot on his back where the other trainer's pokeball had hit. With a slight smirk on his face he'd lean down and pick up the recently captured Kricketune's pokeball, clipping it onto his belt with the rest of the party. Unlike the Vivillion from earlier he had actual plans to keep this pokemon and use it as a steady member of his team. "Think ima name you...Fiddler? Eh maybe, anyway don't worry ill take care of him." He first said to the pokeball then to the other trainer that had tried to capture it. Only to then simply walk off, his Klink following behind him again.
Keeping an eye out as he made his way back to the route's path Corbin would keep his left hand into his pocket. Just in case some other pokemon had appeared. At the sight of a Beautifly the man would smirk once again thinking it could be a decent pokemon to catch. Only to see that the Beautifly had began to battle an Espurr. "Thats uhh a thing.." He simply muttered out before going past them.
After a few brief moments of walking the dark haired man would notice a pokemon dangling off of a tree branch. Some pokemon that was covered up in leafs, he honestly had no idea what it was. With a shrug he'd pull a pokeball out of his pocket, look at it for a few seconds before shooting it at the Wormadam like one would shoot a basketball.
